All Time Low and Gnash are set to begin Part 2 of The Summer Ever After Tour on Thursday in Boca Raton FL, but not before they make a quick stop on the way there in North Carolina. The quick two day stay in the Tar Heel state has them playing in Raleigh and Charlotte, and you know that we absolutely had to catch their show in Raleigh. 

"We love North Carolina, it's good to be back. Our tour doesn't even start for another two days, we just really wanted to play here!" This comment from lead vocalist, Alex Gaskarth, got a huge cheer from the crowd and I speak for everyone when I say that we really love having All Time Low play Raleigh. The former Blink-182 cover band from Baltimore, MD has been one of the leading groups in the pop-punk/alternative-rock scene since 2003 and continue to have consistent success with every album they release. Their most recent releases, just two singles, are a very promising glimpse into their next album (not yet announced).

The first of the two pre-tour shows in North Carolina had all the feels of a full tour production with the lights and incredible performance you'd always expect from All Time Low. Alex Gaskarth and Jack Barakat, were even their normal selves, cracking jokes between songs and making the downtime much more entertaining than watching a bunch of dudes tune their instruments; and of course, their microphone stands draped in bras that are thrown on stage. This still cracks me up, no matter how many times I see this band.

Opening up for All Time Low on this night and on the upcoming tour, was Gnash. You may recognize the name from his breakout radio hit from a couple years ago "i hate u, i love u." The solo artist was joined on stage by a full band and was warmly welcomed to a very lively crowd.
